A trilha atualmente esta limpa e mais preservada devido os cuidados dos moradores locais e do proprietário do sítio Pedra do Bispo que arrecada uma taxa dos visitantes para manutenção do percurso. Hoje ja temos algumas sinalizações no percurso o que facilita o acesso.

Tips

Don’t forget to bring water and sunscreen, as there is no shade along this trail.
